Prepare the seller details and agree the offer, checks and payment plan before treating the sale as complete.
Check you can arrange the sale and handover
Have the available ownership information, keys and vehicle records ready. If you are helping someone else sell, explain your role and who can approve the offer. Mention any finance or ownership questions before an appointment is arranged.
- Confirm who will answer questions and attend the handover.
- List the paperwork available and anything missing.
- Explain whether the vehicle is ready for removal or still needs emptying.
Follow the sale through each stage
First provide the description and photos. Then discuss the valuation and any checks needed. Once the terms are agreed, confirm payment, access and the handover. Keep each agreement in writing and do not treat a submitted form or initial figure as cleared payment.
Include both the motorhome and the base vehicle
A motorhome description needs the driving vehicle and the living accommodation. Give the conversion make and model as well as the base vehicle, then distinguish mechanical faults from habitation issues.
- Year, mileage, fuel type, transmission, MOT status and service history.
- Berths, travel seats, bed layout and the condition of the washroom and kitchen.
- Damp reports, roof or window leaks, heating, water and electrical equipment faults.
- Warning lights, starting or driving issues and any reason the vehicle should not be moved.
Your motorhome location and access in Kenilworth
If your motorhome is kept in Kenilworth, provide its actual postcode and access details. The collection address may be different from your home address. Collection availability, timing and any charges must be confirmed for the vehicle and location. If it is stored closer to Warwick, Warwickshire, Leamington Spa or Coventry, tell us that location in your enquiry.
- At home: mention gates, parking restrictions and space to approach and move the vehicle.
- At a storage site or pitch: check opening hours, visitor requirements and whether you must attend.
- Tell us about missing keys, locks, flat batteries or any known reason the vehicle cannot move.
- Photograph access from a safe position; do not move an unsafe vehicle or climb onto a roof for pictures.
What to confirm before handing over your motorhome
Keep the valuation, any inspection findings and the agreed sale arrangements together. A photo based estimate, an appointment and a completed purchase are different stages. Ask for any change to an offer to be explained before deciding whether to proceed.
- Confirm the agreed amount, what is included and whether any checks remain outstanding.
- Agree the payment method and collection arrangements, including any charges, before accepting.
- Check payment through your own account where a bank transfer is used before releasing the vehicle or keys.
- Keep a written record of the handover and the documents supplied.
